I wish I had a German analogy for seeing the end of the road, but the only thing that comes to mind is, "Your sister makes everything into schnibles", which is neither an analogy nor German. The finish line is in sight!!! Keep up the good work. --Degner

Way to go!! sounds like you're going to have a great weekend! I'm glad today was much easier for you. Only 5 more days. I can already see you at the finish line. Everyone here is very proud of you. What an awesome accomplishment!!!!

Russ, I had a dream about you last night... instead of a run you were swimming across Germany when Claire paddles up in a boat with birthday cake for you. Candles and all! So Happy Birthday and happy soon to be finisher. You are amazing.
